More defensive options?

You go next to an object and press the button, you lose some aps but receive a bonus depending on the nature of your cover and the direction where enemy is shooting towards you. For example a window in a brickhouse would provide very good bonus when someone tried to shoot you through it.

This is actually a good idea, already suggested I think and too hard to be implemanted. But it would be cool.

I suggested it a Looooooooooooooooooooooooonnngggg time ago but it was too hard to implement sadly so moving on...


I really think the shield thing could work, as long as the weapon you have isn't two handed having the shield in the 2nd inactive hand will give  +2/10 damage resist or more?

Agree with avv, it'd be generally better to have options allowing to use tactical skills during combat, but it looks more complicated to implement.

Adding more build/gear defensive possibilities is just strategical but better than nothing, no?

Did a little searching and only place where hard to implement was noted was when cover was mixed with additional stances like crouching.
I wonder if it's that hard for the game to check the surroundings of our chars.

Another way would be that running horizontally past the shooter would reduce his chance to hit but mostly at longer ranges. Running straight forward wouldn't change the odds.

However this would require running have some tradeoff, like the one I suggested this page or having stamina bar like Sarakin mentioned in the same thread.

Shield is just an item, a passive feature. Here's also some crap about irl: the actual tactical shields can only withstand low powered firearms, rifle rounds go straight through. There are heavier versions but they are on wheels.

If they've been able to make power armor they surely could have improved the riot shield we know.
